with security at their core.
Data Storage Site Security
The sites where your data is stored, including data centers, offices, and off-site storage facilities, will have appropriate and physical security controls.
These measures include:
- Physical access to our data centers, where customer data is hosted, is limited to authorized personnel only, with access being verified using biometric measures. Physical security measures for our data centers include on-premise security guards, closed-circuit video monitoring, man traps, and additional intrusion protection measures.
- Tekion maintains a business continuity and disaster recovery program to ensure services remain available or are easily recoverable in the case of a disaster. These plans are tested and reviewed at least annually.
Network Security
The networks on which your data will be transmitted will be protected from unauthorized access or infiltration, either internally or externally.
The measures that will be taken to ensure this includes:
- Running periodic external and internal vulnerability scanning and informing the relevant data exporter of any issues.
- Maintaining perimeter defenses such as firewalls and data loss prevention solutions.
- Maintaining internal defenses such as security information event management to analyze log files to identify anomalous behavior and other threats.
Platform Security
The technology on which your data is stored, including servers, workstations and laptops, cloud service and other portable media will be protected from known threats by:
The measures that will be taken to ensure this will include:
- Ensuring anti-virus or anti-malware systems are implemented and kept current for all operating systems.
- Ensuring operating systems have secure configuration.
- Maintaining internal defenses such as security information event management to analyze log files to identify anomalous behavior and other threats.
Data Confidentiality
The confidentiality of your data will be maintained by protecting such data wherever it is stored, and whenever it is transmitted.
These processes and procedures may include:
- The secure disposal of paper, equipment, media and data.
- The security of data in transmission by means of encryption.
Data Access
Your data will be accessed only by Tekion authorized personnel through such means as:
- The use of unique usernames and passwords to access the IT systems that host your data, including use of multiple factors of authentication to access IT systems remotely.
- Implementing security policies to ensure that passwords are not shared and that systems' passwords are changed periodically in line with recommended best practice.
- Ensuring access to your data is authorized and approved.
- Ensuring there is a clear segregation of duties between users.
- Ensuring access is granted on a least privilege basis.
- Terminating access where appropriate.
Data Processing
We will ensure that appropriate aspects of good security practice are enforced when processing any of your data.

Data Breach Procedures
We have established a set of data breach security procedures that include the following elements:
- Detection: Establishing the facts of the incident and creating a diagnostic, containment and communications plan with respect to those whose data has been affected.
- Containment: Limiting the extent of the data compromise.
- Eradication: Removing all aspects of the hostile code/configuration, if applicable.
- Recovery: Restoring data and system to a known good state, without vulnerability.
- Review: Assessment of how to avoid similar incidents in future.
- Notification: Informing relevant interested parties of the data breach within legal and industry acceptable obligations and timeframes.
Availability and continuity
System availability is our top priority. To that end, we maintain multiple geographically diverse data centers and have implemented robust disaster recovery and business continuity programs. For more information on our service levels, please see Our Service Level Agreement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Tekion have any internal policies regarding data privacy and information security?
Tekion has formal policies and procedures addressing how we develop, implement, maintain, and improve our robust information security program. We also have several internal policies governing how our employees and contractors access, store, and secure customer data. These policies follow a similar format, have dedicated owners, and committed review periods. The policies cover a variety of topics ranging from securing our employees’ assets to responding to security incidents.
Who has access to our data?
Access to your data is generally limited to the following recipients: (1) our employees and contractors who require access to develop our products and services and to provide you with customer support (including employees of Tekion entities); (2) third-parties that you authorize us to share data with (e.g., third-party integrations that you use in your business); (3) third-party partners, including our sub-processors, that we use to develop and support our products and services (e.g., our cloud service providers and OEMs). In some limited circumstances, we may also need to share your data with third-parties for legal purposes (e.g., in connection with a legal action or for tax purposes). However, in all instances, we share only the data that is necessary to fulfill the above purposes. For more information about how we use and share data, please see our privacy policy.
